Okajima wins All-Star fan vote

Hideki Okajima of the Red Sox has been elected to the MLB All-Star Game, earning nearly 4.5 million voted to edge out Jeremy Bonderman of the Tigers, Pat Neshek of the Twins, Kelvim Escobar of the Angels and Roy Halladay of the Blue Jays. Did the fans make the right choice?

I would have taken Bonderman on this one...

Same here, but apparently those darn Red Sox fans stuffed the ballot box.

They would...if they take out all of Simon's votes, I think Okajima doesn't make the top three...

Re: Okajima wins All-Star fan vote

Bonderman may still make it if someone pulls out. It just seems silly to have a vote left up to the fans for the last spot on the squad. It's almost like someone is looking to get off the hook and avoid making a tough decision.

Cool Re: Okajima wins All-Star fan vote

He's not goanna get in the game. Bonderman deserved it, based on merit. But I wouldn't have a problem if Haliday was voted in.
